Over the coming few years, a new set of infrastructure will be rolled out across the world:
5G wireless technology. Just as 4G networks are able to provide mobile internet speeds
hundreds of times faster than 3G — enabling users worldwide to stream HD TV, browse
webpages quickly, and even make high-quality video calls — the advent of 5G will enable
speeds of up to 100 Gigabits per second: up to 100 times faster than 4G.
With each new generation of WiFi that comes out, a new wave of fear-mongering health
claims emerge. They always come along with the same arguments:
- humans have never been exposed to this much of this type of radiation before,
- scientists have not demonstrated that the proposed new infrastructure won’t be
harmful to humans, - the World Health Organization has already declared radio-frequency (WiFi)
radiation to be “possibly cancerous,” - and therefore, we should declare a moratorium on this technology until its safety
has been established.
Fortunately, science already tells us that 5G almost certainly poses no danger to humans.
Unless you value unfounded conspiracies over bona fide science, here’s what you should know.
